Hey Allen, sorry to here about your accident. People tell me it could be worse, something I don't really appreciate. It's hard to imagine worse.. After each surgury I have to readjust my pain rating system. The unimaginable became imaginable. I hope the accident doesn't require more surgury for you, I would be hard to convince that another back surgury will improve things. My doc gave me a trial of MS 12 100mg try 2 a day and up to 3 if needed. I didn't really like the way it made me feel, too many side effects and not the same releif that 60mg of oxy twice aday gave me. It turns out that if I were to switch the MS would only save about 50 a month. not worth the change. For some reason my doc doesn't beleive in breakthrough meds, she just increases the daily dose. She thinks use of breakthrough meds creates more of an addiction problem, the craving to take more and the ups and downs of short acting drugs. Email me if you get a chance at david.e.charles@att.net. Would like to more about you. Sounds like we have alot in common. Are you on SS disability, how long did it take? Married? age? etc. I havn't worked since 4-99. I've been turned down 2 times and have filled for a hearing, It's been assigned to a judge but I'm told it could sit on his desks for months. Hope your doing better......david
